An Improved Caulobacter crescentus Operon Annotation Based on Transcriptome Data

Caulobacter crescentus is a model alphaproteobacterium with a well-studied genetic network controlling its cell cycle. Essential for such studies is an accurate map of the expressed features of its genome. Here, we provide an updated map of the expressed RNAs by integrative analysis of 5′ global rapid amplification of cDNA ends, transcriptome sequencing, rifampicin treatment RNA sequencing, and RNA end-enriched sequencing data sets.
